There's a difference between Jews and "the Jews". Your comment is not at all incorrect but it doesn't apply to the comment you responded to.

Some of the Israeli Jews that are commiting genocide right now are decendents of Holocaust survivors, so I would say the irony is definitely there.

Your username checks out because the difference is a fraction of a cent. What's more important is who owns the songs made by those musicians, and in the vast majority of cases it's not the musicians.

The record industry (including streaming) is not worth saving. It's a parasite.

In the first picture, the object in orbit is travelling along, say, y=0. There could also be an object in orbit along x=0, right? So that would mean there isn't a "canvas" or 2D equivalent, since things can orbit at any angle. Is that right?

Netanyahu's policies are Judaism, right?

Saying, for instance, that “the existence of a State of Israel is a racist endeavor” would be deemed anti-Semitic under its terms. The definition also bars any comparison between “contemporary Israeli policy” and “that of the Nazis”.

Lmao this is a guilty conscience talking.

Aaaand Block is stepping down. Crazy how much behind-the-scenes power the Israel lobby has, and little they regard anyone but themselves.

The public vs private argument seems applicable, but a very important aspect is keeping the counter-protesters civil:

Private security guards with bikes separated the pro-Palestinian group from Israel supporters, and UCLA eventually added metal barricades after counter-protesters repeatedly tried to breach the encampment and in at least one case witnessed by The Times entered and shoved a woman to the ground.

Unlike at Northeastern.

Creating fear of losing your job or school place, stifling free speech for political gain, and gaslighting are psychological abuse and are used frequently in hasbara.

The video footage, originally posted on X by Working Mass, a Democratic Socialists of America media outlet covering Massachusetts, reveals two Jewish students holding an Israeli flag shouted the “Kill the Jews” after pro-Palestine demonstrators conducted a “mic check” — a call and response technique used to focus attention on an organizer.

The two pro-Israel counter protesters then asked the pro-Palestinian demonstrators if they agreed, saying “anybody on board; anybody for that?” The crowd of pro-Palestine protesters immediately started shouting and booing over them.

“You just chanted for it,” the pro-Israel counter protesters can be heard saying.

Gaslighting is psychological abuse and is used frequently in hasbara.
